And when democrats be elected he will probably blame them for never getting either check.

Ffs. Blurring reality and doublespeak continues…
That's not what "gimmick" means. They mean "Lie"!
If you're stupid enough to believe that you'll get a check you might want to sit this election out

If you vote for me and we win, I’ll give you 5k.
